"The 2 bedroom units where we have stayed were great! They are clean and in great condition! They have great activities for kids like the playground, trampoline, mini golf and carts ride. The staff are great and friendly!
The only two things that might need a bit of work would be- the playground might need a bit of work on it and the parking spots between the units was too tight to park the car in due to the shrub/bush which would need trimming back.
Otherwise, overall, it was a great stay and we would definitely go back again! "
"Friendly staff, the 2-bedroom family unit was perfect for what we needed. It was warm, quiet, clean; my bed was so comfortable! The shower pressure was great. Had a hot plate for us to make dinner on, space for 4 people to be in easily, and although around the corner from the Springs - the walk was easy, quick and because it's nestled that little bit back from the main road it was extra quiet! They gave us towels to use for the pools. Honestly one of the best motels I've stayed at - great for families in that 2 bedroom unit!"
